Many coaches talk about “foot speed” in hockey, but I feel like it’s something that’s often misunderstood. So before we talk about how to improve it, let’s define it. What exactly is foot speed? If you look at the definition, it refers to the maximum speed at which a human can run. But in hockey, when people refer to foot speed, they aren’t usually referring to max straight-away skating speed. In hockey, foot speed is assumed to be a mix of agility (think start/stop or change of direction speed) and acceleration (think first three steps). A player with good foot speed can quickly stop, change direction, and explode out of the gates. To improve foot speed, you will want to include a lot of foot or ankle training. Changing direction quickly on skates and the first few steps in an acceleration require “ankle stiffness.” This ankle stiffness will allow for a rapid change from an eccentric contraction to a concentric contraction to produce a highly explosive movement. Essentially you want to reduce the skate-to-ice contact time, so you are “springy” on your skates. A stiffer spring can more rapidly release stored elastic energy. If the ankle cannot stiffen, energy will leak, and the player will be slower out of stops and on acceleration. Most hockey players have never trained specifically for ankle stiffness. Therefore, they can see massive on-ice improvements with just a few weeks of proper training.

If you’d like to improve your foot speed this season, I recommend signing up for the In-Season Domination ‘22 System, and we will provide you with the exact training to do on a week-by-week basis. https://hockeytraining.com/inseason/
